Is he that well known? I never heard of him until now.

I really liked this Jeet Heer thread about Ditko and Kirby, also the Gail Simone thread he links to
1. This is a good tweet in a good thread & I want to expand on this point. Kirby & Kirby both had styles that were curiously at odds with their politics. https://t.co/5kJacKlCwB— Jeet Heer (@HeerJeet) July 7, 2018

I think sometime during the mid-60s Ditko made his characters bolder and more handsome and it was good and different but perhaps not quite as compelling as the earlier look. But there's something different and special about many periods of his work, at least up til the mid 70s when there is a noticeable decline.
